USER MANUAL TXA1802CD Monacor

These instructions are intended for experts (installation) and for users without any specific technical knowledge (operation). Please read these instructions carefully prior to installation / operation and keep them for later reference.

All control elements and connections described can be found on page 2.

1 Applications

This CD player insertion module is specially designed as a retrofit for the active speaker systems TXA-800 and TXA-1020, but the module can also be installed into a different unit.

2 Important Notes

The module (including remote control) corresponds to all relevant directives of the EU and is therefore marked with

• The module must only be installed by qualified personnel!
• The module is suitable for indoor use only. Protect it against dripping water and splash water, high air humidity and heat (admissible ambient temperature range: 0 - 40^ ).
• For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth; never use water or chemicals.
• No guarantee claims for the module and no liability for any resulting personal damage or material damage will be accepted if the module is used for other purposes than originally intended, if it is not correctly installed or operated, or if it is not repaired in an expert way.

If the module is to be put out of operation definitively, take it to a local recycling plant for a disposal which is not harmful to the environment.

3 Installation

Always switch off the unit into which the module is to be inserted and disconnect it from the mains!

3.1 Installation into TXA-800/TXA-1020

1) Unscrew the cover of the insertion compartment (underneath the receiver module).
2) Connect the 5-core cable in the compartment (core colours: operating voltage = red, black; audio = red, black, white) to the jack of the CD player module.

Note: The cable, wrapped around a ferrite core, may slip out of the compartment and attach itself to the speaker magnet. It this case, unscrew the POWER switch module underneath the compartment, if necessary.

3) Insert the CD player module into the compartment and fasten it with screws. If the POWER switch module was unscrewed (see above), fasten it again.

3.2 Installation into a different unit

In order to make sure that the module also complies with the EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) directive during operation, connect the audio output via shielded cables. Non-compliance with the EMC directive will invalidate the declaration of conformity.

1) For installing the module into the basic unit, a cutout of 171 × 41.5 ~mm is required. The mounting depth is 190 ~mm . The module must be installed horizontally.
2) Connect the module via the 5-pole jack (see fig. 3 on page 2).

4 Operation

The player allows to replay standard audio CDs and CDs, USB storage media and SD/SDHC memory cards with MP3 files.

Notes

1. Depending on the CD type, the CD burner and the burning program used, problems may occur when CD-RWs are replayed.
2. The player also supports the reproduction of WMA files.
3. Due to the large number of storage device manufacturers and device drivers, it cannot be guaranteed that all storage media are compatible with this player.
4. Cigarette smoke and dust will easily penetrate through all openings of the player and also settle on the optics of the laser sampling system. If this deposit causes reading errors and sound interruptions, the player must be cleaned by skilled personnel. Please note that there will be a charge on cleaning, even during the warranty period!
5. The anti-shock memory of the player will be able to compensate temporary shocks or vibrations occurring during the CD sampling; however, it will not be able to compensate continuous, severe vibrations. For CD operation, the unit must therefore always be operated in a stationary way, i.e. it must be placed on a solid, immobile surface.

The IR remote control for the player is supplied with a battery. Prior to initial operation, remove the foil from the battery holder. When pressing a button, always direct the remote control to the infrared sensor (2) of the player. There must be no obstacles between the sensor and the remote control.

If the remote control is not used for a longer time, remove the battery as a precaution so that the remote control will not be damaged in case the battery should leak.

Replacing the battery: Push the latch of the battery holder to the right (arrow 1 in the figure below) and remove the holder (arrow 2). Remove the old battery and insert the new battery (3 V button cell, type CR 2025) into the holder with the positive pole pointing upwards. Push the holder back into the remote control.

Batteries must not be placed in the household waste. Always take them to a special waste disposal (e.g. collection container at your retailer).

To switch on/off the player, use the POWER button (1).

Inserting a replay medium:

• Insert a CD with the lettering showing upwards into the CD slot (A) until it is retracted automatically.

• Connect a USB storage medium (USB flash drive or USB hard disk with separate power supply) to the USB port.

• Insert a memory card (notched corner upward and contacts to the right) into the slot SD/SDHC(C) until it engages. To remove the card, slightly push it into the slot until it disengages.

To switch between the replay media, use the button MODE (4). After reading in a medium, its replay will start automatically. If a USB storage medium or a memory card has been selected and is then removed, the player automatically switches over to the CD player mechanism. The same happens when a new CD is retracted.

Control options and information on the display indications can be found in chapter 4.1.
